Are you ready for GOD in 2009?

Are we really ready for 2009? We should not worry about the economy, instead, take our lives on a higher and more stable ground. The Lord will bless you, taking you out of the many waters which drown man. Do not doubt GOD's words but believe and have faith in Him. Open your heart to Him. This is the GOD's word, it's not a religion but a faith to believe in. GOD doesn't appear physically, but His image is found in people, in your lives, in miracles, and even to the littlest detail of yourselves.

1. Deut 28: 1-14

If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all nations on earth.

All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the Lord your God:

You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.

The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock- the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.

Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed.

You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.

The Lord will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven.

The Lord will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The Lord will bless you in the land that He is giving you.

The Lord will establish you as His holy people, as He promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways.

Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they will fear you.

The Lord will grant you abundant prosperity- in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground- in the land He swore to your forefathers to give you.

Then the Lord will open heavens, the storehouse of His bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but borrow from none.

The Lord will make you the head and not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.

Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.


Real change is what happens within us, not what happens to us. Align your thoughts with God in mind. Dwell in GOD. Don't dwell in the land of your enemy( temptations, "grey areas", what the world thinks does not follow GOD's ways). Don't be a servant of others but GOD. Let go of fears and flesh! Don't allow your thoughts to dominate yourself.


2. 1 Samuel 27: 1-5

David was in the land of the Philistines the enemy while avoiding Saul.


3. Romans 8: 5-6

Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.

The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the spirit is life and peace.


4. Psalms 139: 17-18

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand. When I awake, I am still with you.

We need to learn how to receive GOD's abundant thoughts. Catch the ball! Catch GOD's thoughts!


5. Jeremiah 29: 11

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.


6. Psalms 40: 5

Many , O Lord my God, are the wonders you have done. The things you planned for us no one can recount to you; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare.

Position yourself towards GOD. Get ready to receive GOD's blessings and thoughts! Do something with them, return them, fulfil them! Take Action!

7. Isaiah 55: 8-9

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord.

" As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Think differently! Think of higher thoughts! Don't ever think you can't overcome a challenge just because you think you are not the person for it. Who ever comes prepared beforehand? Then it wouldn't be a challenge already. If you believe and have faith in what's GOD doing in you, suppose through an idea or some other proposal, GOD will carry you through the challenge!

8. Isaiah 48: 6

You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? "From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you.

Think of new things! Serendipity: Finding things that you are not looking for. As we obey, we will find something unexpected!

9. Ephesians 3: 20

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

Think supernaturally! He does greater things than we can ever expect out of Him. And He does greater things in us than He did in himself.
